      .@20committee is entirely correct: 850,000 people did *not* have access to the information Snowden leaked. http://20committee.com/2013/11/17/the-guardian-really-needs-to-stop-lying/ …

      @DaveedGR Except... he has chosen not to link to Guardian saying that. He can. But he won't. Ergo his post is now false. @20committee

      @DaveedGR Yes. But look at sources. I'd have to look but think Guardian may have accurately stated 850K TS more often than not @20committee

      @emptywheel I lack time to go back over how Guardian framed it. The point's made often enough that @20committee's explanation is relevant.

      @DaveedGR Sure. But it's a very basic thing. To prove that Guardian does it @20committee provides 2 links proving sometimes they don't.

      @emptywheel @20committee That's a fair critique of his links, but Guardian *does* make that claim. Here, for example: http://www.theguardian.com/uk/2013/jun/21/gchq-cables-secret-world-communications-nsa …

      @DaveedGR Actually, says they had access to databases, NOT to docs. Rusbridger DOES say it at least once, but @20committee won't fix post.

      @DaveedGR Totally agree 1st 2 say it. Now if only @20committee will fix his links to make his post not a known lie we can end this!
